A little back story, I'm 26 years old 6'4 260 pounds the last 3 years I've noticed my health go downhill I've lost my hair, lost libido, I gain weight super easily even though I stay pretty active. I finally decided to go and get blood work done my total test came in at 246. I feel anxious constantly and just don't feel like myself and it's been affecting my relationship.

The Dr I'm seeing prescribed cypionate 200mg a week. I don't have kids yet though I'm engaged and it's wanted in our future. I'm a full time firefighter so sleep isn't always the best.

I haven't started the test yet as I've been trying to weigh everything out. The doctor says it's no big deal and I'll be able to have kids. The only reason it makes me nervous is because it seems like he is a sales person for trt.

 

Sorry for the long post, what I'm getting at is what would you do in my position? I'd love to feel better and get my life back together.

 

Chris Stevens - My T level was 72 a few weeks ago. I'm 32 years old.

I've taken my 4th injection today. I don't feel any difference at all. Is that normal? I've been taking between 200 and 150mg each week.

 

Not sure how long it takes to see improvement. Energy is okay, zero sex drive, zero thoughts about sex, zero morning erections, focus etc feels not much improved.

Ashley Zulch - Has anyone gone off of hcg and just stuck to testosterone? My husband went on hcg in august and off of testosterone so we could conceive and now is off of hcg and only on testosterone. He stopped taking hcg in November and still feels just as bad as he did when on hcg. He gained 40lbs once on the hcg and felt worse than he did before his low t diagnosis.

We were just wondering if there is a certain amount of time if takes for hcg to leave the body. I'm really concerned because he's struggling so much.
